Once we have ``p`` and ``n``, the expected number of times that we
might get selected is ``p * n`` (the mean of the distribution).
Over many cycles our chances will fall around the mean, in some cycles
we will unlucky get less rights, but in some cycles we might get lucky
and be assigned more rights!
we might get unlucky and be assigned fewer rights, but in some cycles we might

Clearly we would like to plan ahead and have enough deposits to cover
also the "lucky" cycles so we need to compute a sort of "maximum"
number of rights that is safe for `most cases`.
